2024 Suzuki GSX-S1000GX+

KEY FEATURES The 2024 GSX-S1000GX+ shares its core engine and chassis architecture with the Grand Touring GSX-S1000GT+, plus the ergonomics and stance of the Adventure Touring V-STROM 1050 and debuts new features and advanced functions that position GX+ as Suzuki’s innovative Sport Crossover model. The GX+ provides superbike-level performance, confidence-inspiring technology, optimized comfort, and connectivity for a premium sport touring experience. The GSX-S1000GX+’s long suspension achieves a new level of performance through the introduction of the Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES) and by adopting the new, innovative Suzuki Road Adaptive Stabilization (SRAS) system. These technologies make the GX+ more comfortable and manageable on roads ranging from urban streets, concrete highways, and uneven, winding mountain roads. The GSX-S1000GX+’s updated Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.) is a comprehensive collection of advanced electronic rider assist systems. The GX+ is the first GSX-S motorcycle to adopt the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector Alpha (SDMS-a) system and includes these other new features: Smart TLR Control utilizes the Suzuki Traction Control System with Lift Limiter and Roll Torque Control, aiding motorcycle performance under diverse and varying conditions. Active Damping Control offers four electronically-controlled damping settings – Hard, Medium, Soft, and a customizable User setting – to best match the SDMS-a riding modes or the rider’s chosen preference. Electronic Rear Suspension Preload Settings offer a push-button choice of four modes to tune the shock absorber to the GX+’s current load requirements. Suzuki Road Adaptive Stabilization activates automatically when riding on uneven surfaces to provide a smooth ride with a soft, controllable throttle response. Smart Cruise Control continues to operate when using the Bi-directional Quick Shift system’s clutch-free shifting, making the GX+ easier to operate on long rides. With over ten S.I.R.S. features, the GX+ allows riders to select the settings that best suit their level of skill and experience, the passenger or cargo load, and the road conditions. The GSX-S1000GX+ has a 6.5-inch full-color TFT instrument panel that is easy to view and understand. Using the panel, the rider may easily tune the GX+’s S.I.R.S. settings, including the electronic suspension’s Automatic and Manual Suspension Modes, and Active Damping Control Levels. In addition to keeping the rider fully aware of the bike’s systems and operating status, the TFT panel uses Suzuki’s mySPINTM smartphone connectivity application to display maps, phone calls, contacts, and music library for excellent convenience and enjoyment. A high-performance 999cc, DOHC, liquid-cooled, in-line four-cylinder engine based upon Suzuki’s championship-winning GSX-R architecture effortlessly powers the GSX-S1000GX+. Every aspect of its performance and durability has been refined to deliver pure, reliable power. The engine particularly shines in the mid- to high-RPM range that benefits a sport touring ride. Surprisingly quick with outstanding rideability, the GSX-S1000GX+ is planet-friendly by complying with worldwide emissions standards. Starting with an aluminum, twin-spar frame and a swingarm derived from GSX-R technology, including the new Suzuki Advanced Electronic Suspension (SAES) system and mix in the V-STROM 1050’s peerless rider ergonomics, yields the GSX-S1000GX+’s chassis that is ideal for sport-oriented Crossover use. Suzuki’s experience with Sport Touring and Adventure Touring models, coupled with its commitment to innovative engineering, makes the GSX-S1000GX+ Sport Crossover easy and enjoyable to ride. *The Traction Control System is not a substitute for the rider's throttle control. It cannot prevent loss of traction due to excessive speed when the rider enters a turn and/or applies the brakes. Neither can it prevent the front wheel from losing grip. **Depending on road surface
